The Best of the Best
Notice anything familiar about our cover? Each letter spelling out “Best of Huntington” comes from the sign of a store or restaurant identified by our readers as their favorite, the best of the best. It is a fitting summary of this month’s LIfe edition, which celebrates all that is great in this town. Readers poured out their thoughts on our submission forms to help us create what you’re about to read, a compilation of your choices for the top picks in town, from where to shop and find that perfect pizza slice, to where to get a
movie star haircut or take in the sunset. There was no formula to make this list or set of criteria a place or establishment had to meet. This is simply a rundown of what our readers wrote in to say was the best in their minds – everyone in here is a winner in our eyes. If your favorite place isn’t listed, send in your form next year to ensure they get their proper recognition. Are you so Huntington savvy that you can identify where all of the letters on the cover came from?
